Title: Method for the treatment of activated carbonaceous material containing alkali/alkaline earth metals for the reduction of nox from flue gas
Inventor: GUPTA HIMANSHU
IPC: B01D53/86
Filed: 2001-02-02
Abstract: Economical NO x reduction from the flue gas is essential for the long-term profitability and existence of fossil fuel based thermal power plants. The proposed process describes the application of activated carbonaceous materials for the post-combustion control of nitric oxide (NO x) emissions from flue gas.  Integral experiments were carried out on a variety of carbonaceous species such as graphite, activated carbons and coal char. A selectivity parameter (g carbon consumed/g NO reduced) has been used as a basis for quantifying the effect of the various prameters such as oxygen concentration, alkali impregnation and temperature of reaction on the carbon-NO selectivity. The reaction between pure structured carbon (graphite) required very high temperature. The reaction rate with char and activated carbon was determined to be higher compared to the rate with graphite. The reaction temperature was significantly reduced by the impregnation of carbons with alkali metals.  For a given carbon, the selectivity of the carbon-NO reaction increased with temperature. The effect of initial surface area of the carbon was also studied on sodium carbonate impregnated activated char. It was seen that a higher initial surface area increased the selectivity of carbon-NO reaction.

Abstract: Many parts of the world have anti personnel (AP) landmines (APLs) buried in their earth, which pose a great deal not only to fighting forces, but also to civilians.  For any imaging system, detection of APLs is non trivial since APLs are typically relatively small, compact objects that are buried in a similarly dense medium, such as earth.  Improved explosive device (IED) detection may prove to have more potential than detection of APLs in view of the increasing worldwide terrorist activity. A portable APL or IED detection apparatus is thus proposed that utilized a coded aperture mask as well as a radiation source in order to detect backscatter radiation from a target area for use in assessing whether the target area includes an APL or an IED. The coded aperture mask receives the backscatter radiation and forms an image on a detector array, this formed image is deconvolved with a response matrix of the coded aperture mask in order to form a visual representation of the target area.
